Tobacco In England.

"The use of tobacco in this country
has been steadily growing" says the
st. James Gazette. ..From the last In
land Revenue report 1t appears that,
whereas in 1s41 there was . popula-
ton of upwards OF tw~enty.six millions,
and an Importation Of Tobacco o
twenty-three mulions Of pounds
weight, the numbers have now grown
to fifty three millions of pounds for a
population of thirty-seven millions. To
put this more clearly, in 1841 we re-
quired Is 3-4 ounces of tobacco per
head, whereas we now want / pound
2 ounces. Since the higher rate Of
duty was imposed Gin 1879, however,
the increase of consumption has not
grown much faster than that of tho
population. It is very satisfactory to
notice that no cas- Of 'adulteration Of
home manufactured tobacco has oc-
cured during the year covered by tho
report. Some foreign cigarettes are
apparently favored with hcorice and
glycerine; q fact which will probably
be new to cigarette smokers. Another
paragraph in the report shows how
ludicrously unsuccessful are the efforts
to cultivate tobacco in the United
Kingdom.
